ParticipantImagine giving up a guy that has 13 goals already, well on his way to another 30 goal season, for a bag of pucks? My goodness drury is horrendous.
Part of Drurys vision for the team. Lets face facts here, this team, as it was constructed, wasnt winning the Cup. The guys Drury traded werent the reason why they lost. The main culprits, cant be traded. It was up to Drury to milk this roster for a last run but he blew it and blew it big time. The culture of this team is in the pits. Laffy is looking like another 1st round bust. The Rangers organization can not keep failing to hit on a first round pick, aside from of course, CK20. This is why I get so pissed when people say we will be ok, no, we arent, its Cup or bust, one Cup in a 100 years isnt good enough for me and with 32 teams in the league, it will be even harder.

ParticipantWell, they got Morrow, use him. Hes supposed to be an offensive minded Dman. Pair him With Gavrikov, leave everything else as is. We could feature Morrow, maybe he does something special and then maybe we can move him at the deadline to a team needing an offensive RD.

Why trade a young defense men when they could start to build around someone?

ParticipantNot sure how this will play out. No idea if there is any pressure on Drury. Dolan had to give the OK last season for Drury to pull his stunt.

ParticipantWe’ve played 27 games
We’ve won 5 games against teams currently in a playoff spot
3 games in a row was nice but we don’t have the juice
A good team doesn’t lose like this. Especially against a team without hedman, point, and 3/4 of their top 4 defensemen. Igor has faced the most shots and we cannot get any of our own let alone scoring chances
We are not a good team. An average team at best annd our best future assets are our two first round picks this offseason. We have no high end prospects. Perreault could be a first line player but he’s not a franchise player. Mika, jt, Trocheck are all on the wrong side of 30 on long term deals and only Trocheck is remotely tradable. Panarin needs to get dealt and not let walk for nothing. The best case scenario is Fox is out long term and they blow it up (not that I’d wish bad upon Fox, just purely objectively speaking). Not overly enthusiastic about the near future unless Drury loses his mind and does crazy stuff (he’s boring and arrogant so he won’t) or he gets fired
Id be fine with moving Fox out too. He has a NMC so he would have to agree to be moved.

ParticipantOf course the quote button isnt working.
I agree with Rick, so far, they are just an average team at best, if not for elite goaltending, below average. You cant come home after a win yesterday and play like they did today, good teams just dont do that. We will see how it goes but Im not excited for having Drury run the next rebuild.

ParticipantHa Ek has Panarin going to the Ducks. High level discussions!! Why would Panarin waive to go to the West coast? I was surprised CK20 did, is it possible, yes. I doubt it.

ParticipantThis team found the formula to win, get out shot by more than 2-1 and let Igor bail them out. I cant see it not working.

ParticipantThis schedule is a meat grinder for sure, its brutal this year. The next ten games will determine the season, I think, those teams in the playoff position by the New Year will make the playoffs. It will be more than half the season by then, insane!!

ParticipantHey they won, they beat a non playoff team. Big deal. The Piles get a number 1 pick and he has helped them into a playoff spot. Our number 1 pick has been on a milk carton for 2 years. There is no way anyone can say this team is better than the one last year. Trading the old leadership group hasnt helped and with the expected declines in production from our top players, as expected, they cant carry the bottom six anymore. The genius Drury screwed up big time. We will see what happens as the season plays out.

ParticipantThis team just isnt looking good.
